I have to pick Rocky 4. If he dies...he dies.

Great motivation when training!

Only just had the chance to watch the creed movies and was impressed that they have managed to continue with the theme.

Salman Butt replaces Mohammad Hafeez in Qalandars’ squad

Dubai, 19 February 2019:

Opener Salman Butt will replace Mohamamd Hafeez in Lahore Qalandars’ squad for the HBL Pakistan Super League 2019, it was announced today.

Hafeez has been ruled out of the tournament after fracturing his thumb during his side’s 16 February match against Karachi Kings.

What do you think of the logo and name so far? The coaching staff is interesting to say the least, I am not a fan of Muhammad Akram being the coach but at least Abdur Rehman is there in some form. Andy Flower and Grant Luden are great selections though, do not know who the physio is.

4- Brian Lara - what more can I say the guy hit the greatest off spinner over point for a six. Unbelievable batsman

I was totally off on him after the last ODI and first T20, but given how desperately we need players who can score quickly, does Umar Amin deserve a go down the order in T20s? And maybe even ODIs at 6/7? Or was today just a fluke and he was batting on a belter?

Many things have been tried by them, they threaten players by saying that if you play in that league then you won't be invited for this league... I travel and play in overseas leagues and meet foreign players and I am stunned to hear what kind of thoughts these people have... They have tried many things to hurt PSL but insha'Allah nothing will come of it.]]>3Predict the next Pakistani Politician/Leader in JailThu, 21 Feb 2019 15:59:30 +0000https://cricistan.com/threads/predict-the-next-pakistani-politician-leader-in-jail.48146/
